Jets fans can cross Tarvaris Jackson off the list of potential competition for Mark Sanchez.

The Bills re-signed the quarterback Friday, eliminating him as a candidate for the Jets starting job. Jackson’s name has been linked to Gang Green this offseason.

New Bills coach Doug Marrone says the team will also keep last year’s No. 1 quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick and he and Jackson will compete for the starting job.

Jackson, 29, never saw the field last season as the Bills’ third-stringer. He’s a seven-year NFL veteran, who was acquired by the Bills in a trade with Seattle in August. Jackson started 14 games for the Seahawks in 2011, completing 60.2 percent of his passes for 3,091 yards with 14 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. Before that, he was with the Vikings for five years. He has a 17-17 record as an NFL starter.

ESPN reported last month that new Jets general manager John Idzik could be interested in Jackson, because the two have history together with the Seahawks. Idzik was Seattle’s vice president of football administration.

The Jets are shaking the trees for potential quarterbacks after Sanchez’s dismal season, though they likely won’t cut him. The team is expected to trade or release backup Tim Tebow.
